Trader consensus favors 160-179 SpaceX orbital launches in 2026 at 59% implied probability, driven by the company's blistering early-year pace of 52 Falcon 9 missions by late April—its 50th Starlink launch on April 26 alone reinforcing a cadence of roughly 13 per month that projects to 156 annually. This builds on 2025's record 165-167 launches, fueled by Falcon 9's 99.5% reliability (642 successes in 645 flights) and surging Starlink demand, now exceeding 1,000 satellites deployed in 2026. SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell's ~140 Falcon goal tempers higher bins, but Starship's FAA-approved 44 flights per year adds upside potential amid pad expansions. Key uncertainties include regulatory delays and weather for remaining windows; next Falcon 9 Starlinks lift off May 1-5 per official manifests.
